Mine do the same, i generally give people about 2 seconds (sounds like a short time but its not) before i give them a flick. I love "playing" high beam wars... i...

Mate, personally from what i've seen from that site it *looks* like a good buy. I say *looks* cos i haven't driven the car - but you seem pretty impressed with it and sounds like a goer. I love the colour and the lines of that body shape. Sounds like you already love the car too - I'd watch out for ...

Hope its of some use.

Cheers

Re: going bigger or better brand, i guess perhaps i should call what i'm after 'fog' lights rather than spotties ? I just wanted an 'easy' way to solve the suby-crap-light problem, rather than going roo shooting. This effort is pretty much just for highway driving. I got my lights when i was living...

Why not do a body swap? Sounds like you've put some good time, effort and parts in this baby and now your just going to wreck it. I don't mean this in a harsh way, i know it can seem hopeless and depressing at times but i know from experience that you'll miss this car when its gone... Some one may h...

In my mind the scoop facing forward with some thermo's, it'd have to be a decent scoop i'd imagine... If it were my project i'd be inclinded to have the radiator mounted to the bonnet so it lifted with the bonnet when opened. I don't see the need for an electric pump to move the water around, the en...

Good instructions there click. Just one question, do the MY's lights turn off with the ignition? If so this wire install will leave the driving lights on after the ignition is turned off (unless manually switched off from the dash switch) but will operate as normal when the ignition is on. I ask thi...

Yeah that cast manifold transports coolant from the head to the thermostat housing. If the leak is coming from where the manifold joins the head, it is possiably the intake manifold gasket that has sprung a leak. All you have to do is remove the intake manifold and replace the gasket. Make sure you...

Hey Dave. With the issue of the different diametre front tyres, your not going to break anything with this. The diff may be working a little more in a straight line. You'll really notice the binding when in 4wd wether they're on the front or the rear. Even with 4 tyres of the same diametre you'll st...
